On this episode, I will discuss aminoglycoside pharmacology. Gentamicin and tobramycin are the two classic examples of aminoglycosides. We will review how these medication work in the body, adverse effects, and the importance of pharmacokinetics and laboratory monitoring.

Beta-blockers are commonly used in the management of hypertension as well as rate control for atrial fibrillation. On this episode, I breakdown some of the most common agent and what to look out for. Enjoy the show!

In the episode, I break down the pharmacology of lisinopril (and all ACE inhibitors). I also outline common adverse effects, drug interactions and its role in managing hypertension. Hope you enjoy the show and please feel free to reach out with feedback!

In this episode, I talk about the most important and common adverse effects with metformin and what you will likely see in clinical practice. I also will talk about the benefits of the medication and its role in the management of type 2 diabetes. Hope you enjoy the episode!

In this introduction episode of Real Life Pharmacology, I discuss the two major reasons why I wanted to start this podcast. I also share a little bit about my background which you can also find here.

Reason 1: I want to help young healthcare professionals by providing an alternative option to help them learn pharmacology.

Reason 2: I have had professors in college that don’t practice in the real world and really have a tough time relaying important and relevant clinical information. I wanted a way to share some of my experiences as a clinical pharmacist, which I believe will help you provide better care for your patients.
